In broad desert daylight, a mysterious platoon of soldiers evacuates the entire population of Sunrise Valley, Nevada. Minutes later, a huge bomb detonates a hundred feet above the ground and lays waste to homes, cars, and playgrounds: a town annihilated in an instant. AND SO IS THE WOLF. Alex Cross is on vacation in San Francisco with his girlfriend, Jamilla Hughes, when he gets the call. The Russian supercriminal known as the Wolf claims responsibility for the blast. The Wolf is the deadliest nemesis Cross has ever faced, and the fact that he is still at large is agonizing for Cross and his new bosses at the FBI. AND SO IS THE WEASEL. Major cities around the globe, including London, Paris, and New York, are threatened with total destruction. The Wolf has proven he can do it - the only question is, can anyone stop him in time? Surveillance film of the blast reveals the presence of another of Alex Cross's most dangerous ene-mies, the ruthless assassin known as che Weasel. The thought of these two dark geniuses joining forces makes Alex's blood run cold. NOW ARE YOU SCARED? World leaders have just four days to prevent an unimaginable cataclysm. In a matter of hours, Cross is catapulted into an international chase of astonishing danger. Joining forces with Scotland Yard and Interpol, Alex fights his way chrough a torrent of false leads, impersonators, and foreign agents before he gets close to the heart of the crimes. Racing down the hairpin turns of the Riviera in the most unforgettable finale James Patterson has ever written, Alex Cross confronts the truth of the Wolf's identity - a revelation that even Cross himself may be unable to survive. London Bridges is an unstoppable, explo-sive, and utterly shocking thriller that reveals once again why "Alex Cross is one of the great creations of chriller fiction" (Dallas Morning News).
